A lot of hate in this thread. If you stop analyzing the utility/practicality/extensibility of it you might admire just how beautiful it is (or try to picture the tired dev taking a coding break to do some "art").

I love ASCII ART. Its elegance is in its simplicity. To be able a draw anything from simple boxes[0] to Mona Lisa[1] to Porn[2] using nothing but bunch of plain ascii characters just blows my mind. To craft is to hand place each character, at its right place without disturbing anything around, which feels nothing less than crafting a glass-piece.
